Hi. I'm not sure how this works. I just submitted an article, but it needs some help, especially with formatting and such.

::Hi Katja! It looks very good. I might suggest adding a couple pictures if you have any available. You can upload pictures using the "Upload File" link on the sidebar, and then check the "Editing Tips" on the edit page for examples on how to integrate the image in (or look at other pages). Basically it's like this: image.jpg|thumb|description with double brackets on either side. Hope that helps! - [[User:FrJohn|Fr. John]]

Well, Rdr. Andrew helped. :)

As for photos of Alexander Schmorell, I know that there are a lot online, but I'm not sure about the image copywrite on them. I *believe* that a lot of the photos are actually copywrite of Jürgen (George) Wittenstein. I think that Jenna, who is webmaster of the jlrweb.com site said that she actually has permission from him to post those photos on her site, but I don't know the lowdown on it all.

: I would think that most of the photos had gone into the public domain by now&mdash;aren't they at least 50 years old? &mdash;&mdash;[[User:ASDamick|<font color="blue"><b><i>Dcn.

Welcome Katja, it's good to see you here! I look forward to your contributions. -FrJohn

Welcome to OrthodoxWiki!

Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Please note that OrthodoxWiki is always in development, so not everything works quite right yet. You can help, though!

OrthodoxWiki is a community-edited encyclopedia of Orthodox Christianity. Articles are created and edited by our members, and so everything that we do here is subject to review and revision. The result is a true consensus product, with every interested editor contributing his own knowledge and writing skills. As such, when you feel that criticism of an article is warranted, we encourage you to join in and fix it! Don't worry about breaking anything or doing something wrong—the other editors here are happy to jump in and help you learn.

Also please note that other editors will assume that you have read the Style Manual (our official editing guidelines). If you're wondering why an edit was reverted, an article renamed, or any other unexpected changes were made by another editor, check there.

Please also take a few moments to edit your user page by clicking on your name here, so that we can know a bit about you: User:Katjuscha. Feel free also to add your picture to the OrthodoxWiki:User gallery.

If you are uploading images, be sure you're doing so legally and according to OrthodoxWiki policy. Failure to abide by policy may result in your images getting deleted without warning.

If you would like to experiment with the wiki, please feel free to do so in the Sandbox.

By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and other discussion pages using three tildes, like this: ~~~. Four tildes (~~~~) produces your name and the current date. Please sign your comments on Talk pages, so everyone will easily be able to see who left them.

You'll have to verify your email address before editing any pages. This helps us prevent spam. Don't worry, your email won't be viewable to anyone but the sysops. We respect your privacy.

I'm finally writing here
